Excellent accommodation. Close to the town centre. With parking which is a bonus in Whitby. Furnishings and fittings are of a very high standard. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone especially a large family or groups of friends.

Amazing house and location. Only point to improve was the fitted sheet was not deep enough for the mattress so kept popping off but didn’t spoil the holiday. Would recommend and book again.

Very conveniently located in the centre of Whitby. Very difficult to park a large car in the back yard, but we left the car there for the week and caught buses everywhere. Good bus service. House clean and comfy, however water wasn’t very hot in the shower in the attic bedroom.
